Donating Your Head to Theater

When the Polish composed Andre’ Tchaikowski died in 1982, he donated his body to science, but had left instructions requesting that his head, or rather his skull, be donated to the Royal Shakespeare Company in the hope that he might have the role of the exhumed Yorick in Hamlet.

Obviously a fellow of infinite jest.
